The plasma membrane diagram above shows you the structure of a plasma membrane. Plasma membrane can be defined as a biological membrane or an outer membrane of a cell, which is composed of two layers of phospholipids and embedded with proteins. It is a thin semi permeable membrane layer, which surrounds the cytoplasm and other constituents of the cell. More cell diagrams are in the following images.

The main components of plasma membrane include: Proteins like glycoprotein, which are used for cell recognition and act as receptors and antigens; Proteins like glycolipids are attached to phospholipids along with the sugar chains; Lipids with short chain of carbohydrates are attached on the extracellular side of the membrane; Phospholipid Bilayer – which are made up of phosphates and lipids. They create a partially permeable membrane, which allows only certain substances to diffuse through the membrane; and Cholesterol – it maintains the fluidity of cell surface membrane.
